I studied biochemistry, mathematics, and physics at Purdue University from 2013 to 2018. I was on the Dean's List and received several scholarships while at Purdue: Edwin T. Mertz Memorial Scholarship; David & Mary Scheible Scholarship; Zygmunt Family Scholarship Biochemistry ICM; Gruel Memorial Scholarship; Alva R. Bryant AG Alumni Scholarship. I graduated in May 2018 with a BS in Biochemistry and minors in Physics and Mathematics.

I studied biochemistry, mathematics, and physics at Purdue University from 2013 to 2018. I was on the Dean's List and received several scholarships while at Purdue: Edwin T. Mertz Memorial Scholarship; David & Mary Scheible Scholarship; Zygmunt Family Scholarship Biochemistry ICM; Gruel Memorial Scholarship; Alva R. Bryant AG Alumni Scholarship. I graduated in May 2018 with a BS in Biochemistry and minors in Physics and Mathematics.
I went on to study Applied Mathematics and Statistics at Stony Brook University from 2018 to 2025, focusing on computational biology. In spring 2019, I was awarded an Honorable Mention in the category of Mathematical Biology for the Graduate Research Fellowship Program held by the NSF. I studied mathematical models from neuroscience using tools from physics and data analysis for my doctoral work, defended my dissertation work and graduated in December of 2025 with my PhD.
I have a variety of experience tutoring and teaching. I was a tutor for a center at Purdue that organized one-on-one peer tutoring for low-income students, where I helped undergrads with chemistry, biology, and calculus. I did private tutoring for a handful of clients in general physics and college algebra (2016-2018). In summer 2018, I helped teach high school students laboratory techniques in biochemistry as part of the Summer Science Program. While at Stony Brook, I was a teaching assistant for undergrad courses in calculus and linear algebra, where I led recitation discussions and held office hours to help individual students better understand the course material. In Fall 2019 I worked one-on-one with an undergraduate student to help them read through a text in a special topic of mathematics as part of the Directed Reading Program. Finally, I taught summer courses for multivariable calculus through the Department of Applied Mathematics and Statistics at Stony Brook in 2021, 2022, and 2023. These classes were typically 50-60 students in size and mostly juniors or sophomores in college.
